Abstract
The results of the extension of a collaborative study for the detection of chemical-induced DNA damage in rat hepatocytes in vitro are presented in this report. Three coded compounds, i.e. 1,4-butanediol dimethanesulphonate, hydrazine sulphate and sodium dichromate, were tested for DNA repair synthesis by seven different laboratories, either using autoradiographic procedures or the liquid scintillation counting technique. Inter-laboratory standardization was intentionally not requested in order to investigate the validity of each study design under routine conditions. 1,4-Butanediol dimethanesulphonate was clearly positive in most laboratories; sodium dichromate was generally positive, while the results on hydrazine sulphate were contradictory.
